TO: Board of Supervisors

FROM: Paul S. McCulla, County Administrator

SUBJECT: Proposed Fiscal Year 2018 Budget

Enclosed for your consideration is the County Administrators proposed FY 2018 budget for the
Fauquier County Government. The FY 2018 budget process continues the two-year budget
process implemented by the Board of Supervisors with the FY 2015 budget. While the Board of
Supervisors approved a draft FY 2018 fiscal plan with the FY 2017 adopted budget, the Board of
Supervisors must legally adopt a final FY 2018 budget and tax rates for Tax Year 2017 through
the annual statutorily mandated process for adopting budgets and tax rates.

As such, the FY 2018 proposed budget was prepared based on the commitment by the Board of
Supervisors to a two-year budget adoption process. The proposed budget is based on the approved
draft fiscal plan for the second year of the two-year budget. Adjustments were made as part of the
FY 2018 budget process only as a result of significant changes in revenue projections, the
imposition of newly mandated or regulated requirements, or other significant events constituting
an emergency that required additional consideration.

The FY 2018 proposed budget totals $310.9 million, and consistent with the Boards approved
draft plan for the second year of the biennial budget, recommends no adjustments to the overall
real estate tax rate at $1.039 per $100 of assessed value and all other tax rates for Tax Year 2017.
To provide the utmost flexibility to the Board of Supervisors when considering potential changes
to the proposed budget, including the capital improvement program and match funding for a
potential fire and rescue staffing grant in FY 2018, the FY 2018 proposed budget will advertise an
overall real estate tax rate of $1.059 per $100 of assessed value. Under the advertised rate in the
FY 2018 budget, the average homeowners real estate tax bill would increase approximately $64
per year based on an average residential assessment of $321,300. However, the proposed budget
maintains the current tax rates, equating to no adjustments in the average homeowners real estate
tax bill.

Fauquier County, Virginia Fiscal Year 2018 Proposed Budget Page A-1
General Fund revenue continues to experience modest growth primarily resulting from increases
in real estate, personal property, and sales taxes. Real estate tax revenue continues to benefit from
modest amounts of new construction and improvements, while sales tax continues to experience
moderate annual growth. The most significant increase in General Fund revenue was due to
additions in the base assessment value of personal property from new business investments
equating to an approximate 5% increase, with continued positive growth as a result of new
automobile purchases and maintained valuations. Overall impacts of recent business development
will be longer term with no significant impacts in the short-term due to tax incentive programs.

Unemployment in Fauquier County has remained relatively steady over the past two years,
dropping from 3.3% in December 2015 to 3.2% in December 2016. In comparison to the State and
nation, the Countys unemployment rate continues to trend below the State at 3.8% and
significantly below the nation at 4.5% in December 2016. The current unemployment levels are
significantly below the Countys ten and five-year averages of 4.4% (2006-2015) and 4.8% (2011-
2015) as calculated by the States Employment Commission.

FY 2018 Proposed Budget


The prior approved FY 2018 fiscal plan was a commitment of funding by the Board of Supervisors
with limited revisions due to new federal or state mandates, recognition of changes in revenues, or
an emergency in operations. The vast majority of the departments and organizations who sought
funding in the FY 2017-2018 budget process adhered to the directions related to the second year
budget process and did not request increases to their budgets beyond that which had been approved
in the draft FY 2018 plan. Overall, the FY 2018 proposed budget includes those limited
enhancements included in the approved FY 2018 fiscal plan, with minor changes due to
recognition of additional revenue or significant changes in operations.

The FY 2018 proposed budget totals $310.9 million, with General Fund expenditures totaling
$182.98 million. The General Fund increase equates to approximately $5.4 million, or 3.1% over
the FY 2017 adopted budget, and a $3.4 million increase over the draft FY 2018 fiscal plan,
primarily driven by revised revenue projections due to additions in the base assessment values for
real and personal property. The FY 2018 proposed budget includes a $1.99 million increase in
local support to the School Division to meet rising benefit costs, including mandated increases in
the Virginia Retirement System contribution rates for School Divisions and health insurance costs.
The FY 2018 proposed General Fund budget also includes a $1.1 million use of fund balance, as
planned by the Board of Supervisors in the FY 2017 budget process, to allocate towards one-time
funding initiatives.

The FY 2018 proposed budget maintains those increases the Board of Supervisors approved with
the FY 2017 adopted budget, and also maintains all tax rates for Tax Year 2017 as originally
planned in the FY 2018 approved budget. The primary focus of the FY 2018 planned budget was
funding the phased increases in public safety staffing and the full year costs of the mid-FY 2017
two-percent cost-of-living increase to County permanent employees, with a limited level of
increase for fixed and mandated cost increases. The FY 2018 proposed budget augments the
original fiscal plan by allocating additional revenues in key areas including health insurance cost
increases and allocations towards future debt service and capital cash funding needs.

The increases in the FY 2018 proposed budget include approximately $685,000 for a health
insurance projected increase, approximately $145,000 for increases in formulary-based
contributions to support agencies, a $50,000 projected increase in fleet costs, and an approximately
$100,000 increase in County-wide maintenance service contracts and insurance premiums. The
projected plan also includes a limited set of enhancements including three additional FTEs for
County departments and six additional FTEs for public safety. The proposed budget includes one
additional FTE for a captain position at the Upperville fire and rescue station due to the recent
announcement of the closure of the Volunteer Station and the transfer of the Station to the County,
one additional deputy for Court Services approved mid-FY 2017, and four additional FTEs for the
Sheriffs Office patrol division previously approved with the FY 2017 adopted budget. The
increases in County departments include two additional FTEs in the Commissioner of the
Revenues Office for Business Taxation Compliance, funded with one-time monies in FY 2018
and to be self-supported in FY 2019, an increase in hours for one full-time FTE in the County
Attorneys Office to address workload demands, and one additional FTE in Parks and Recreation
with the establishment of a Parks and Facilities Crew Supervisor mid-year, with related operating
budget increases of approximately $36,000 for maintenance service, based on the projected
opening of the Central Sports Complex in FY 2018. Lastly, the proposed budget includes one
Fauquier County, Virginia Fiscal Year 2018 Proposed Budget Page A-3
project manager position for the proposed Broadband capital project. The position is to be
supported with project funding with a term equivalent to the length of the project.

The FY 2018 proposed budget does not include an additional compensation increase for County
employees. In addition, the proposed budget increases overall health insurance costs from a
projected 3.5% in the original FY 2018 budget plan to 8.0% in the FY 2018 proposed budget. The
projected increase would be split between employer and employee at a 90%/10% increase
allocation, which equates to a 5.0% increase to employee premiums. Since the recession, the
County has limited the level of increase in employee health insurance costs given the availability
of funding hindered compensation increases. However, recent health insurance market trends and
current health insurance costs have restricted the Countys ability to continue to cover the
employee share of those increased costs, but also mitigates passing along those increases to
employees by other means such as increased deductibles or plan design changes with the potential
for proposed changes in federal health insurance laws.

School Division
The FY 2018 budget includes an additional $1.99 million in local funding to the School Division.
The School Divisions Operating Fund adopted budget totals $137,297,382, a $3.6 million or 2.7%
increase over FY 2017. The direct local funding support to the School Division equates to 56.7%
of available local funding, including debt service funding and a transfer to the School Division
Operating Fund. The inclusion of consolidated services received by the School Division, but
funded within the County government budget, such as Human Resources and General Services,
which support the School Division through direct and indirect sources, increases local support to
61.3% of available local funding.

The FY 2018 Proposed Budget increase of $1.99 million in local support to the School Division,
primarily funds benefit related costs. The increased funding will support projected VRS
contribution rate increases as included in the States biennium budget, as well as the School
Divisions share of the projected 8.0% increase in health insurance costs, with local support costs
equivalent to the employers 90.0% share of the projected increase. VRS contribution rates for the
schools have been increased by the State in an attempt to narrow the gap in funding the school
retirement fund with VRS. The School Division would need to determine if they would pass on an
increase in health insurance costs to employees or cover that level of funding through non-local
support funding.

Capital Improvement Program


The Board of Supervisors began the Capital Improvement Program planning in December with a
work session that included an overview on the currently adopted CIP and the Countys draft five-
year plan. The Board held an additional work session on February 1, 2017 that began to outline
their capital planning objectives for the five-year plan. At that work session, the Board of
Supervisors received the preliminary request from the School Board for their capital improvement
program which primarily focuses on the Middle School Renovation project. The Board of
Supervisors determined at that meeting to hold individual work sessions with the School Board
and Fauquier Water and Sanitation Authority to discuss planned and potential capital projects.
These individual meetings will allow for the Board to finalize revisions to the capital improvement
plan and release a proposed FY 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Program. The proposed budget
includes a draft CIP which allows the Board flexibility in their planning process with a limited
number of new projects and the full estimated costs of proposed School Division middle school

Fauquier County, Virginia Fiscal Year 2018 Proposed Budget Page A-4
projects. The CIP included with the proposed budget is in draft form as the Board continues to
work through the capital project planning process during the budget cycle.

Budget Process and Board Consideration


The Board of Supervisors is scheduled to begin its formal consideration of the proposed FY 2018
budget with a work session on March 2, 2017, and the Board will tentatively hold a joint work
session with the School Board on March 9, 2017. Given the FY 2018 budget is the second year of
the two-year budget process, the work session schedule is shortened for this budget cycle. Work
sessions have been scheduled for March 7 and 14 to be held, if necessary at the Boards discretion,
with mark-up/mark down scheduled for March 21, 2017. The Board will also hold a public hearing
on the FY 2018 proposed budget, CIP and Tax Year 2017 tax rates on March 16, 2017. The Board
is scheduled to set tax rates and adopt its FY 2018 budget and CIP on March 23, 2017.

Summary
The annual budget process continues to be a complex process given growing and changing needs
in the community including capital projects and public safety, balanced against fixed and mandated
cost increases for the County and School Division. However, the continued use of the biennial
budget process enhances the Countys ability to react to fiscal challenges and develop strategic,
fiscal planning models that outline the needs of the County and the resources required to meet
those operating and capital initiatives. I continue to look forward to working with the Board of
Supervisors to develop a budget that focuses on managing financial resources, while ensuring the
provision of key programs and services of the County.
